i liked the slogan 'proudly made in bavaria' inside my pandora.
i think it's funny, because bavaria calls itself a 'free state', so not all germans think that bavaria is 'real' german territory.
i'm not into nationalistic thinking, stuff from nation a) is good and from nation b) is bad.
true, the world get spammed by cheap asian products, but that was not the fault of the asian workers, it was an evil plan called 'capitalism' invented from
'the west' to do these badly produced cheap things there to rip us (the rich) off here.
lately i have seen some really good made stuff from china. the fiio x1 audio player i got is an example. it is made in china by a chinese company that has the slogan
"raise the reputation of made in china" and it is of really good craftsmanship.
back in the day my c64 had the lable made in germany, but i think most of the parts were also made in asia, even in the 80/90s.
so for me there is only one world, one love! down with borders! we should try to respect people everywhere the same, the internet is a good start for this international thinking/working.
'proudly made on planet earth' would fit it nice for me.
we really need a kind of bio/organic/fairtrade thinking for building/buying electronic devices.
anyway, the best way to help the planet is to not buy all this cheap crap and only conecentrate on fairly done stuff one really needs. (lika a pyra, of course!)
less is more!
